ACC admin rights

Hello

We are about to move our University licence for Adobe Creative Cloud to VIP.

Most of our users have 'managed PC desktops' which do not have 'Admin Rights'.

Are Admin Rights required for:

  • initial install of Adobe Creative Cloud from the user portal.
  • upgrade of Adobe Creative Cloud Applications by the user from the user portal.
  • download and install of fonts from the portal.

Is there are management console that deploys Adobe Creative Cloud and 'solves' the issues that I anticipate?

Regards

Dave

Regarding the updates, you can suppress the Adobe Update Manager in the Creative Cloud Packager, so end users will not be prompted to install updates.

Edit and save Adobe Creative Cloud package configurations

There are a number of options for deploying updates, you can use Remote Update Manager to do this as an admin, set up your own Adobe Update server or simply package updates with CCP and push those out using your preferred method.

Thanks for the reply.

Currently we have two ETLA licences and use the packager to create packages (with a single code)  that individuals install using temporary admin rights.

What will be new for us with VIP

- will be multiple codes and users having access to a personal portal. I assume from your reply that the packager can cope with multiple codes but I am very curious about how 300 users might get individual packages.

- as I understand it VIP offers users the ability to update their packages from the Internet (after being notified that an update is available). The scenario that we fear is that an an update to Photoshop is notified and three hundred people phone the service desk requesting temporary admin rights.

You can set it using Configuation Manager Software Center : [ SCCM ]  .

No need of Admin rights if you are installing from Software Center, most of the Enterprise networks uses this option .

Example:

About Client Settings in Configuration Manager

You can also configure automatic updates , manage apps or schedule app management using Configuration Manager .

You may refer below links for reference.  I am pretty sure you might have checked these already .
